Father/Daughter artists to exhibit together in the Seton Hall University

Artists Ales Shaternik and Julia Shaternik will exhibit their dynamic art at the Walsh Gallery at Seton Hall University in the second floor gallery.  

Their paintings will be on display from March 14 through May 27, 2007.  An opening reception will take place on Thursday, April 19th from 5 PM to 8 PM. The opening reception and exhibition are free and open to the public.  The show is composed of 12 works that demonstrate the virtuosity of the artists in oil paint.

The elder Shaternik’s work consists of five landscapes that are vivid and full of energy which is demonstrated through his vibrant use of color and vigorous brushstrokes.  His daughter Julia exhibits seven paintings that are figurative and skillfully express her talent for balancing color, shape and line.  Both artists hail from Minsk, the capital of Belarus.  Ales received his training at the Belarusian Theatre and Art Institute (1967), while Julia received her MFA from Belarusan State University of Culture in 2004.  Both artists have a comprehensive record of international exhibitions and are in numerous private and museum collections
